LS1 vs Foxbody
LS1 vs Foxbody 88 Fox- 308, 10:5:1 pistons,4 10s,Short throw,F cam, Heads,throttle body,Pullies,trickflow upper and lower,bbk cai, tune,some weight reduction, MAF,24lb injectors,no AC.
02 T/a- Full bolton's, dyno tune, nitto's with crappy 2 73s...
Heres the story, me and this guy have been talkin crap to each other for forever. and the last time we raced we went from a dig, and I pulled him by 2 cars outa the gate then he let off. Now this time, he says ok lets do a roll.. then ill give u ur dig. So we line up 35mph and were suppose to go to 130.
Instead, we take off and he puts about a car or maybe 1.5 cars on me at 85 then my car starts to pick up a little, (2 73s) and I start making up ground and im almost to his bumper.and then he hits the brakes. Idk If i was gonna make a car and a half but I think it woulda been close. after that we pulled into a parking lot and talked, then when I asked to go from a dig... he said "noooo, I jus destroyed you from a roll" ME: So your jus gonna take that crappy roll win? HIM: " Yea you dont want it from a dig."
So we really only raced 75 mph. 35-110. But I guess its a loss, and I hate when people talk about races then dont post up. So I figured id post up.

since he held you off up top(his weak spot), i dont see you being in front as long as he can drive. with ported stock heads a dig would be to his advantage, if his car hooks ok he should pull you from a dig too
good runs. gears for you would probably change the outcome dramatically.

. Get the 3.73s and a stall
and walk his *** hard Roll or dig
LOL, a 302 and a 308 are the same thing, one has a .040 overbore, helps a little but doesnt always mean anything, could even make less than stock depending on how it was machined, clearances, etc.
Sounds to me like the guy with the stang doesn't want to lose. I have the 2.73s in my car and I hear you when you say they suck. Shitty pick up from a launch. Change the gears, get a stall, and get some video of the excuses he makes when you stomp his *** next time.
